THE LATEST ON INCARCERATED DEEJAY VYBZ KARTEL (RETURNS TO COURT NOVEMBER 12)

It is said that despite being behind bars for practically a year, controversial dancehall artiste Vybz Kartel remains a hot topic and even though he faces a lengthy prison term, his lawyer says he is in high spirits.

According to reports Tavares-Finson and other members of Kartel’s legal team visits the deejay once a month and stated that his client spends a lot of his time reading and writing songs.

When asked if the entertainer has expressed any fear of a long time behind bars, it is said that Tavares-Finson stated that although Kartel has not openly admitted it, like any accused he may have his doubts.

Reports are that Adijah Palmer aka Vybz Kartel, and his co-accused Vanessa ‘Gaza Slim’ Saddler and Andre ‘Pim Pim’ Henry will return to court on November 12 when they will be tried for perverting the course of justice.

According to reports Kartel, along with his protégé Shawn Storm and fashion stylist Calvin ‘Moonie’ Haye, was charged for the murder of Clive Williams who was beaten to death in August of last year.

It is said that while Kartel is incarcerated, several artistes from his ‘Gaza Empire’ including Tommy Lee and Pop Caan, have emerged and are said to be now making headways in the dancehall community.
